As a therapist, I have a deeply held belief in the power of listening and acceptance. It can be scary to trust in yourself, especially when you are suffering. Therapy with me is a space to let go and be yourself: no masks, no judgment, just curiosity, acceptance, and compassion. I provide this space for clients of all backgrounds. My clients would describe me as calm, warm, and adaptable. I am passionate about supporting clients healing from trauma, dealing with ADHD, and dealing with anxiety. I use ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to help you unhook from difficult, tangled thoughts and feelings and to live according to your values. I also use EMDR to support clients healing from trauma. Together, we will collaborate to figure out what has you feeling stuck and what actions you can take to move toward a full, meaningful life.

I am a compassionate and experienced ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) dedicated to providing high-quality mental health care. With over 15 years of nursing experience, I have had the privilege of caring for diverse populations across Florida, gaining valuable expertise in understanding and addressing a wide range of mental health needs. Currently, I focus on delivering virtual psychiatric care to patients in both Florida and Colorado, helping individuals access the support they need from the comfort of their homes. My approach emphasizes creating individualized treatment plans tailored to each person’s unique needs and goals, always prioritizing a client-centered, empathetic approach to care. Whether working with those facing anxiety, depression, or other challenges, my mission is to empower patients to achieve improved mental well-being and a better quality of life.

I am passionate about helping you live your best life. Maybe you're not even sure what that looks like yet, but you know something about the way you're living isn't right. Let's figure that out and get you on track. I want to help you handle those hurdles so you can enjoy your life and relationships again. My primary clientele is young women ages 15 and up. A Colorado native, I double majored in Psychology and Acting at the University of Colorado in Boulder and obtained my Master's in Counseling from Adams State University. I live in Boulder County with my husband, three dogs, and one cat. I love photography, hiking, home projects, travel, and reading crime dramas! I volunteer with several local dog rescues. *Please note that the intake session you sign up for is the slot you will have available for all future sessions.

You are the author of your own life. Sometimes, the story gets confusing. I'm here to partner with you in better understanding yourself, where you are, and where you want to be. For me, the therapeutic relationship is foundational for success, and ours will be built on safety, trust, and compassion. I take an integrative and client-centered approach to counseling, tailoring my methods to suit your unique needs and preferences. I believe in creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts and emotions openly. While proficient in several modalities, I specialize in anxiety, relationship issues, and trauma. I help my clients build resilience through self-compassion, develop coping skills, and ultimately foster healthier relationships with themselves and those around them. I hold a Master's of Science in Education (MSEd) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from St. Bonaventure University and have worked with clients from all walks of life, ages, and diverse reasons for seeking counseling.
